Extender: Polypropylene, Nylon, Diamond Pad Sharpener, Firesteel-Magnesium block fire starter
Knife: This is my standard, full sized PJ, a
knife directly designed by and custom made for United States Air Force
Pararescuemen. A larger and meatier version of my most popular knife,
the PJLT (Pararescue Jumper Light), the PJ has a fuller, longer, and
more deeply hollow ground blade. This one was custom made for a fine
PJ that has moved on to contribute to civilian rescue and is an
active independent duty medic. This knife goes well beyond the requirement of
survival knives, it is a true rescue icon, developed exclusively for
our nation's top military, and now civilian rescue professionals.
The blade is made of tough, hard, and extremely sharp 440C high
chromium martensitic stainless steel, my most popular stainless tool
steel for good reasons. It's very wear resistant, tough, reliable,
and holds a great edge. It's highly corrosion resistant, so much so
that it is my most asked for stainless tool steel for tactical,
combat, and professional duty knives. The blade has a tanto point
that is very stout with a secondary point for applying great
pressure, and two inches of my Vampire rip tooth serrations. The
bolsters are zero care 304 high nickel, high chromium austenitic
stainless steel, and are fully and comfortably contoured and
radiused for a solid grip. The handle scales are canvas reinforced
Micarta phenolic, bedded and secured with eight 304 stainless steel
pins and dovetailed bolsters. It is a very solid, stout, and
powerful knife, and I've custom engraved it for my client honoring
his service and sacrifice.
Sheath: Included in the package and just as
important as the knife is the sheath. This one is my positively
locking kydex, aluminum, and stainless steel. The kydex is double
thickness (.125") and is hot formed over a welt frame of 5052-H32
corrosion resistant, high strength aluminum, with a protective liner
at the cutting edge. The sheath locking hardware is all stainless
steel for dependability and high corrosion resistance, and the
entire sheath is secured with stainless steel, low glare Chicago
screws. The sheath has my traditional die-formed belt loops (not
shown) included, and also has my bolt-on ultimate belt loop extender
with full accessory package. This allows a lower, more traditional
placement of the locking sheath on the belt, and will accommodate
thicker belts and belts up to 2.5" wide, and includes the anti-flop
shock cord with nickel plated steel snap retention, the diamond pad
sharpener, and the magnesium-firesteel fire starter. Learn more
about these useful accessories

includes a blue lacquered brass removable flashplate for
presentation.
It is always an honor to make these knives for those who have
served and continue to serve our country and community in the
lifesaving field.
